Convert have_ptrace_getregset to a tri-state boolean
have_ptrace_getregset is a tri-state variable (-1, 0, 1), and we have some conditions like "if (have_ptrace_getregset)", which is not correct. I'll explain why it is not correct in the following example. This fix to this problem to replace the test (have_ptrace_getregset) to test (have_ptrace_getregset == 1) or (have_ptrace_getregset == -1) etc. However Doug thinks it hinders readability https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-05/msg00692.html so I decide to add a new enum tribool and change have_ptrace_getregset to it, in order to make these tests more readable. have_ptrace_getregset is initialised to -1, and is adjusted to 0 or 1 in $ARCH_linux_read_description according to the capability of the kernel. However, it is possible that have_ptrace_getregset is used before it is set to 0 or 1, which means it is still -1. This is shown below.

Breakpoint 1, x86_linux_read_description (ops=0xceaa80) at git/gdb/x86-linux-nat.c:117 117 { PTRACE_GETREGSET command is used even GDB doesn't know whether PTRACE_GETREGSET is supported or not. It is wrong, but works on x86. However it doesn't work on arm-linux if the kernel doesn't support PTRACE_GETREGSET at all. We'll get: (gdb) run Starting program: gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break warning: Unable to fetch general register.
